Tomorrow's Ark, the journey of hardcore and ruthless people

They were then torn to shreds by intense rifle fire.

The 7.62X41MM caliber PKM machine guns and AKM automatic rifles of the National Self-Defense Forces fired violently, knocking down the Royal Army infantry in groups.The Wang Tingjun infantry could only lie down on the ground, try to shoot, and then leap forward with difficulty.

It has been at least two weeks since the logistics supply line was cut off, and Wang Tingjun's front-line material reserves have long been completely exhausted.Food can still be robbed all the way, but weapons and ammunition are really helpless.Just like the shortage of artillery firepower, the light weapons of the Wang Ting Army are also toothache: in the hands of the soldiers of the Wang Ting Army who are now engaged in the attack, there are only a handful of automatic weapons, and most of them only have bolt-action rifles!

Wang Tingjun only has human lives, and they can only invest enough human lives in exchange for a chance of survival.The ground seemed to be moving by itself amidst the waves of people, and the machine guns at all firepower points were spouting flames, drawing waves of blood in the attacking formation of the Wang Ting Army; the small and medium-caliber mortars on the two battalions fired at full speed, Every time a shell fell, it would blow up a blank space in the crowd, but in the blink of an eye, this small blank space was filled by the surging crowd, making people breathless!

As the two infantry battalions of the first defensive line began to engage the enemy, Manfred saw through the binoculars that the infantrymen of the National Guard swarmed out of the bunkers and bomb shelters and rushed to their respective combat positions.

He said expressionlessly: "The artillery fires, fires rapidly, shoots out all the shells, and then withdraws from the position to distribute small arms."

The roar of the 75MM light cannon suddenly sounded, dense and loud, very conspicuous in a row of dull cannons.Before the officers and soldiers of the National Guard on the first defensive zone of the Fulda line of defense could respond, swarms of shells flew towards them.

The officers and soldiers of the National Self-Defense Forces who were exposed to the battle position were bloody and chaotic.The officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting Army, who were suppressed to death, jumped up one after another the moment the defensive firepower weakened, and rushed to the defenders' positions at full speed, even if 75MM shells hit their own skirmishers by mistake one after another without hesitation!

This is a very limited tactic.There will always be considerable errors when the artillery shoots curved shots. When the infantry on both sides has already received fire and the distance is only 200 meters or even tens of meters, covering the enemy's position will inevitably cause accidental injury.But this is also an effective tactic. During an infantry exchange of fire, the enemy cannot retreat into the shelter and shelter, but is exposed in the combat position in the trench, and the shelling can cause the most efficient damage to it.

The Wang Ting Army only has a 75mm cannon, which has limited power. Although this will also reduce the accidental injuries suffered by the Wang Ting Army infantry, it will cause more chaos than actual damage to the defenders.Wang Tingjun must seize this opportunity to break into the defensive position at one stroke, use the only advantage "number" to sweep the enemy's defense line, solve the problem as quickly as possible, and not give the enemy a chance to reorganize the defense...

"—They don't have that chance!" The stupid dog in the regiment's command post ordered loudly, "Rocket launcher! Carry out blocking fire!"

Intensive screams without any gaps suddenly sounded. Amidst the "swoosh" whistling of six 107-mounted [-]MM light rocket launchers, nearly a hundred rocket shells were fired from the center of the circular position, and splashed on the position after a short distance. cutting edge.

The terrifying barrage swept from afar like a huge carpet.The burning charge turned the point of impact into a sea of ​​boiling flames, and the officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting Army who were there were reduced to ashes, regardless of whether they lived or died. The burning flames forced the officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting Army who followed up to stop.And the officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting Army who had rushed into the position encountered something even more terrifying:

Small-caliber self-propelled rapid-fire anti-aircraft gun!

The People's Alliance army obviously has no air targets to deal with in Terra, and these things are not worthy of comparison with the Hydra self-propelled artillery that can take down Necron fighters. A thin armored turret with a fast rotation angle, and various combinations of small and medium-caliber rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns. The single vehicle has no radar, and the fire control is simple.

But it is definitely enough to deal with infantry.

Clusters of gray-white smoke exploded among the soldiers of the Wang Ting Army who entered the position. The brave and tenacious soldiers fell one after another amidst the flying fragments, and those who were directly hit were simply blown to pieces!A chain of fire swept across, and the whole squad and row of officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting Army who were desperately blocking the various fortifications, bunkers and even the terrain disappeared disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the commanders and fighters of the National Self-Defense Forces rushed up again, quickly sweeping the wedge that had just been driven in with automatic weapons...

The positions of the National Self-Defense Forces were restored again, as if the nearly thousand casualties of Wang Tingjun just now had never happened.

It can be called a low-level mistake to be broken into by the enemy on a narrow front with an absolute firepower advantage.Hangou learned from the painful experience, just as another batch of long-range artillery entered the position to support him, so he decided to let go.Comand promised to do his best to support his side, and the battle situation is so severe, he must not be stingy with the long-range firepower in the open space.

——With a 155 self-propelled howitzer battalion, blockade the northeast entrance of the Fulda Valley with all its strength, and make sure that "any Wang Ting army troops who pass through must pay heavy tolls";

——Using the naval gun of a land-line standard destroyer is responsible for the anti-battery operation, attacking all the artillery of the Royal Army who dare to fire, so that the artillery of the Royal Army cannot threaten the Fulda ring position;

- Respond directly to the emergency fire support request of the Fulda Regimental Battle Group with the naval gun and missile firepower of a land-line standard destroyer and a land-line standard cruiser;

——With two 155MM self-propelled howitzer battalions and two 203MM24 self-propelled rocket battalions, conduct blocking shooting at the front of the defensive position and establish an artillery blockade;

——Use two 105MM towed light howitzers and two 120MM heavy mortar companies in the circular position to strike the enemy's follow-up attack echelon's approach route and garrison area;

—— Use self-propelled artillery groups to sweep away the enemy infantry groups that directly attack the position.

Finally, the aviation unit promised to provide fifty sorties of air support within six hours, not counting the drone swarm.

The space fighter command squads in the central command post of the circular position drew up plans and made arrangements at an astonishing speed.At [-] o'clock in the morning, when Wang Tingjun launched the second attack, a new experience came.

From the marching formation to the deployment, from advancing to the battlefield to meeting the enemy, every second, every meter, every step, there are shells biting tightly; from heavy multi-purpose aerospace fighters to swarms of armed drones All kinds of fighter planes flew in and bombed and strafed.Faced with the fierce direct defensive firepower of the coalition defenders and the ferocious open space indirect firepower of Atlas, Manfred could only do his best to organize a new attack.

The officers and soldiers of Wang Tingjun are undoubtedly brave.They not only have good tactical literacy, but also have a firm and tenacious will, determined to wipe out all the enemies in front of them and then return home.

However, the power of matter can only be countered by matter.

Atlas' various gunboats, armed drones and fighter jets dispatched 50 sorties in one morning to provide close air fire support to the ring defense position.With the crazy roar of the Gatling cannon, the entire skirmisher line in the open space turned into minced meat on the ground in the blink of an eye; every time an incendiary bomb was dropped, the entire row or even the entire company of Royal Court officers and soldiers turned into flames melted firewood.

The swarm of drones that took off came from the field airport more than 100 kilometers north of Fulda. In order to support the blockade of the Fulda gap, these "predator" armed drones were charged once every three sorties, but Never stopped the engine.

But it is impossible for the planes that come and go to always cover the friendly forces that are about to be overwhelmed by the sea in the distance.Continuous fire blockade still depends on artillery.And the Artillery of the People's Federation lived up to expectations, fired non-stop, and erected a line of defense composed of fiery fragments and violent shock waves outside the entire Fulda circular position. More than 10 shells and rockets were fired in this direction.

When night fell on the 4th, piles of empty shell casings were piled up in various artillery positions, each pile being 3 meters high.The artillery commanders were all exhausted and staggering.Each artillery company did not suspend firing for at least four hours, and many artillery companies reported serious ablation of the barrel rifling and bursting of the hydraulic cylinder of the retraction system.

Facing an enemy with absolute numerical superiority, the battle in the Fulda ring position was fierce and cruel.However, when the defenders in the position look in any direction, they can be relieved to see a sea of ​​flames: explosions of 155MM shells, 203MM rockets, aviation rockets, napalm and promethium incendiary bombs, and aerial bombs of various weights. The sound is endless and earth-shattering.The firepower of various aviation guns also showed their power.

In any case, the defenders don't have to rely on light weapons in their own hands to destroy these enemies who are fighting the beast.

Chapter 51 Final Battle 4

The artillery fire was terrific, and the wounded who were withdrawn from the front continued to flow.Froststar circled the entire field like a fire on its tail.His dynamism has caught everyone's attention.

But it turns out that Miss Shuangxing is not doing wasted work.

The widest part of the Fulda Valley can reach [-] kilometers, but the diameter of this circular position is only [-] kilometers.Under the helplessness of the frontal attack, there will always be officers and soldiers of the Wang Ting army spontaneously or ordered to detour, trying to open a breakthrough on the flank.

No, as soon as the Babel Tower officer Medic opened the curtain of the medical tent, he saw a long row of wounded lying on the ground in front of him, with a rifle inserted upside down on the ground with a bayonet as an infusion point.Then a stray bullet flew from beyond the bush, shattering the IV bottle closest to her.

The small group of enemies who rushed into the camp's position in the chaos ran around like headless chickens, and unexpectedly ran into the bushes where the rescue camp was located.

"Enemy attack!"

Not far away, the screams of the guards were heard. Medic was still at a loss, a slender but powerful little hand grabbed her shoulder and pushed her over directly.

The gray-throated Duanping pistol fired two shots in a row, knocking down the Wang Tingjun soldier who was rushing over with a bayonet.Then he picked up the medical operator who was lying on the ground, pinched the nape of her neck, dragged her all the way to the defensive formation just a few meters away, and threw her an automatic rifle: "Take it!"

"I...I am a non-combatant!" The medical operator thought he was no longer afraid of blood.But when she felt that the gun was sticky, and when she let go of her hand to see the blood on it, she still couldn't help feeling horrified—and the whistles and horns of the Royal Army infantry were sounding very close...

"If you want to return to the island alive!" Gray Throat replied loudly, "then kill the person who wants to kill you first!"

The Atlas soldiers hastily distributed guns and ammunition to the wounded lying on the ground, and then spread out into a sparse defensive formation before the wounded, and there was a large bush just a few meters ahead.

That Mephisto changed his previous image of a sunny and cheerful boy. He pulled the bolt of the 95G automatic rifle and made a "squeaking" sound. His voice was sharp and high-pitched: "Everyone, protect yourselves!"

The rustling of branches and leaves in the bushes and the whistle of building are gradually approaching.The soldiers of Wang Tingjun, who were charging hard, suddenly rushed into an open space, and were knocked down by short shots before they could react.

The dense bushes blocked the connection and cooperation between the soldiers of the Wang Ting Army, so the soldiers of the Wang Ting Army outside followed.They didn't know anything about the enemy situation ahead, they just subconsciously charged behind the soldiers in front, and as soon as they passed through the bushes and entered the central open space where the ambulance station was, they were knocked down by several automatic rifles at the same time.

They rushed in continuously, and were swept down in groups.

A wooden-handled grenade flew over, and the Babel and Atlas soldiers immediately fell to the ground.However, the soldiers of the Royal Court Army ignored them and rushed forward with their bayonets drawn in the smoke and dust caused by the grenades.

Mephisto and Faust raised their guns at the same time, fired alternately, and knocked down several enemies who had rushed in front of them one after another, winning these few seconds.This is enough to make the subconsciously dodging soldiers start shooting again, blocking the enemy's intention to see the red bayonet.

When the enemy's corpse fell down, the butt of the G98 rifle in the corpse's hand hit Faust's head so close that he staggered from a kneeling position and fell on his back.

Gray Throat rolled and crawled towards her, and the precision shooting rifle in her hand was tilted 45 degrees to the left, shooting with the small holographic sight installed on the upper right of the gun body, and quickly made a fan to shoot the three enemies who jumped out again. Falling down, throwing down the rifle while emptying the magazine, drawing out the pistol and continuing to shoot, while lowering his head to check the condition of Faust.

The movements are skillful and powerful, but there is a frightened expression on his face.

Faust shook his head and got up again, just as the last few Wang Tingjun soldiers rushed in, he was stunned when he saw the dead bodies of Wang Tingjun soldiers and a dozen black gun muzzles on the ground in front of him.But gunshots sounded from behind them again, and the soldiers of the Wang Ting Army fell down within two seconds.

"Friends, friends!" Froststar yelled as he hurried in from the bushes, almost drawing a few bullets.Mephisto looked at the five or six snow monster warriors following her, and hurriedly asked, "What's the situation? Did the enemy rush here?"

"The entire battlefield is in chaos!" Frost Star shook his head, "Don't worry, all the companies are still guarding their positions. Although the battle line has been stretched a bit, the enemy was blown to pieces after passing through the artillery blockade. Yes, it won’t move us.”

"Then what's going on with this pile?" Faust pointed to the corpses and wounded of nearly thirty Sarkaz soldiers on the ground.

"Let me tell you, even if the tolls were collected by the shells, the small group of our mixed battalion encountered a multi-way and non-focused attack. The total number of people is thousands of people! I really can't stop a platoon from entering. Suka, the mace is about to break off the spirit cover this day! Don’t worry, the defense line won’t collapse, but always be careful of small groups of enemies coming in!”

While Shuangxing was still explaining, the communicator carrying a walkie-talkie next to her came over and handed over the microphone.Shuangxing shouted before he could even hear a few words: "What? Is the combat engineer company putting bayonets on there?"

So she hurried through the ambulance station with her command squad again and out of the bushes.

Mephisto, who was squatting beside Faust, calmed down, looked down at the corpses of Wang Tingjun and the wounded on the ground: "Hey, the one wearing glasses, the one wrapped in bandages, the one wearing the logo of the logistics soldier... the one opposite The Sarkaz is filling the front line by himself. Also, how long has it been since I changed my clothes, what the hell, there are not many boots that don’t show their bottoms!”

Faust nodded: "That's it. I also think this is different from the enemy's previous level. Why are they rushing around like this... No, look at their weapons."

Mephisto glanced at the surrounding corpses along the way: there were only a handful of automatic rifles, and they still had bayonets on them; Muzzle-loading guns and sticks with bayonets attached...

He muttered in a low voice: "No wonder they haven't fired a few shots from the beginning to the end. Okay, hurry up and set up security, clean up the battlefield, and rebuild the defense."

At the same time, Gray Throat walked to the side of the medical operator again, looked at the operator who was sitting on the spot panting with his rifle in his arms, and four enemy corpses were lying around him, and nodded invisibly: "This is not a performance. Well done."

Medic glared at her tremblingly, didn't say anything, barely got up, staggered and almost fell, but still staggered back to the medical tent.

At the same time, Froststar had passed through the bushes and stood on the defensive position of the Ursus Combat Engineer Company of the Mixed Battalion.

Combat engineers are different from conventional engineers whose main task is to pave roads, build bridges and dig fortifications. First, they are responsible for breaking through the enemy's fortified areas with professional skills to deal with the solid defense system, and then they are engineers responsible for construction work.The reason is also very simple - if you know how to make the fortifications strong enough, you will naturally know how to destroy the fortifications most efficiently.

Due to the particularity of their missions, in addition to a large number of automatic weapons and explosives, the combat engineers of the Terra People's Guard are also equipped with a lot of heavy-duty powered exoskeletons and high-level bulletproof plates.They also have to undergo rigorous special training in melee combat, bombing, and explosive ordnance disposal.Well equipped and well trained.

On the other hand, the Wang Ting Army on the opposite side... You have just seen the situation of their troops under the severed logistics, heavy casualties, and multiple debuffs on the long-distance march.

Although Wang Tingjun just relied on his life to blow up the barbed wire fence, exhausted the directional mines arranged at the front of the position, and then rushed in desperately howling; Afterwards, they launched a counter-charge with sharp bayonets or wielding sharp engineering shovels.

The two waves of people collided with each other, splashing a burst of flesh and blood.The bayonet came in from the chest and exited from the chest, the engineer shovel ruthlessly split the fragile human body, the dagger stabbed fiercely, and the grenade in his hand aimed at the head of the enemy in front of him.Some red-eyed bastards even threw grenades at the fighting crowd. Shrapnel and steel balls splashed everywhere, regardless of friend or foe, splashing a large amount of flesh and blood in the crowd.

However, the combat engineers have perfect protective equipment, which can even block the direct fire of 7.92MM full-power rifle bullets. Most of the soldiers of the Wang Ting Army are left with tattered cloth military uniforms.Amidst the screams and curses, the vast majority of those who fell were Sarkaz.

There were more and more Wang Tingjun soldiers, but a mere platoon of combat engineers blocked them firmly at the front of the position, and even forced the enemy back again and again.The company commander of the combat engineer took the lead in fighting, swinging the engineer shovel like a raging lion, chopping left and right among the Wang Ting army.Two Wang Tingjun soldiers rushed towards him with their bayonets straightened out. The Ursus savage bear didn't even see through it, and swung the engineer shovel to sweep the two hard-fated guys away.

The two self-propelled anti-aircraft guns that rushed in urgently adjusted their muzzles and fired fiercely, creating a wall of fire on the attack route of Wang Ting's army.Finally, the soldiers of Wang Tingjun who lived in Bengbu completely collapsed.

White Rabbit was so angry that his face turned black, he got into the trench of the combat engineering company, and grabbed the company commander who was an old partisan before: "Zaytsev!"

The uncle looked at the princess in the guerrillas and smiled silly: "Ah, Yelena, what's the matter..."

"What are you doing? With less than [-] enemies, how could you fall into hand-to-hand combat with your firepower configuration?!"

The company commander's naive smile became awkward: "Ah, this... just exercise your muscles and bones."

"Did you deliberately let the enemy rush in and see the red bayonet, or did you do it accidentally?"

"It was on purpose." The company commander looked serious.

Shuang Xing was silent for a moment, then raised his middle finger: "Just do it to death!"

Suddenly the correspondent shouted: "Boss! Hedley is calling from the hillside!"

Frost Star glanced at the smoky, but 20-meter-high gentle slope in the distance, and beckoned to the side.The communicator handed over the walkie-talkie microphone, and Frost Star called out loudly on the communication channel: "Hedley! Mr. Hedley! How are you doing!"

"Our battle line is stretched a bit, Miss Yelena!"

Three meters away from Hedley was a rattling machine gun, which was constantly knocking down the rushing Wang Tingjun.He had to raise his voice: "But the enemy's situation is even worse. There are many people, but the organization and coordination are very chaotic. The firepower of machine guns and mortars is very restrained, and there must be insufficient ammunition. The main heavy weapons are- —Cluster grenade! Ines, get down!...Yes, it’s a cluster grenade. We still have the initiative!”

"The people who told you to lie down in the trenches!" Frost Star replied loudly, "I will call artillery support to concentrate shooting in front of you!"

"No need, we are more willing to die under the enemy's gun than to be killed by friendly forces!"

Before he finished speaking, the soldier who was less than one meter away from Hedley was hit and fell down because he leaned forward and shot a little higher, and twitched at the bottom of the trench.The soldiers of Wang Tingjun who rushed to the top of the slope along the slope were also knocked down one after another under machine gun fire.But the flashes of muzzle flames in the distance continued one after another, and the incoming enemies followed suit.

"Move the barrage a little farther, 100 meters!" Hedley changed his words immediately.

"Okay. Hawkeye-5, over to you!"

"understand!"

The People's Alliance combat infantry team on Hedley's position began to get busy: "Urgent request for close air support! Call 'Predator', find the target, attack area is G-133 to G-157, more than two hundred enemy infantry , moving towards our defense line in direction 142, requesting machine gun and incendiary bomb attacks, diving in at a small angle from direction 179..."

The Sarkaz people of the Kazdel National Self-Defense Forces are countless mercenaries, all of them have spent their childhood in killing, blood and weapons, and came out of the pupae in the social gutter.In terms of rebelliousness and cruelty, he is one of the best in this land, but in terms of cultural level... It can only be said that he cannot write three out of ten words that sound on the communication channel.
